Solution
The
direction of current will be from east to west. We have applied right
hand thumb rule here. According to right hand thumb rule: Imagine
that you are grasping the current carrying wire in your right hand so that your
thumb points in the direction of current, then the direction in which your
fingers encircle the wire will give the direction of magnetic field lines
around the wire.
